Following a post CCT robotic/bariatric fellowship at Reading, I was appointed at my North Tees permanent consultant post in September 2022.
I had training and speciality registration in two countries and My NHS practice includes wide variety of open, endoscopic and laparoscopic procedures for adults and children.

I completed my PhD degree successfully in 2017. I also have multiple publications in high impact journals, including a leading article in the BJS. My research gained the first place in the bright idea award 2011.

Reviews
Felt at ease very friendly and professional, explained everything I needed to know.
Mr Isreb was absolutely fantastic today. He was so clear on everything and explained everything in a very understandable manner. Many drs I have seen explain things in their medical terms but Mr Siddek explained everything perfect to my understanding. He was very patient and asked multiple times if I had more questions and if I was okay with everything discussed. He was very clear and honest about risks and side effects etc which I appreciated. Also explained the process of my pre assessment and what will happen on the day of my surgery, also the aftercare and advisories. He covered everything brilliantly. I arrived with many questions and had all of them answered before I even had to ask. Very lovely DR
Really appreciate your kind words
The whole experience was very good. Was seen on time. Mr Isreb was very nice and clear in explaining everything and answering my questions.
Thank you for the feedback
Very professional and knowledgeable with excellent patient interaction.
Thank you
Very efficient appointment. I didn’t even sit down in the waiting room, was straight through to see Mr Isreal. He was welcoming and most importantly reassuring following my concerns after my recent operation. I was probably being over cautious going back in but was certainly not made to feel like I was there unnecessarily. I left feeling reassured.
It was always pleasure to see you and I am glad I managed to put your mind to peace
I was late to my appointment and apologised to Mr Siddek. He was very good about it. He explained what he had planned to do and the reasons why.
Pleasure to see you and happy I could help
Very informative and overall incredibly helpful
